[ Inspiring Generation] [ Kim Hyun Joong] Episode 1.

Hello Alien soldiers,
Did you see Inspiring Generation 1st ep last night?
I bet that u kept starring at the screen n holding your breath with Shin Jung Tae appearance, right?
From the beginning of the drama, we can see a beaten Jung Tae with blood and scared on his face.
A fierce look and rugged image, that is totally different from his lately image of a flower boy or genuine in BOF or PK.
Nice words from Kpopstarz.com about HuynJoong comeback drama.
Audiences were shocked to see his boyish charms replaced, but embraced his comeback. It is clear from the photos released for Inspiring Generation that Kim Hyun Joong has worked even harder to obtain a more manly appearance.  With an emphasis on strong athleticism and martial arts, Kim Hyun Joong proves that he is more than just a pretty face in Inspiring Generation.

Hereby are what koreandrama commented.
After Kim Hyun Joong’s long absence in the acting industry, he comes back with a new drama and with a new character. He has transformed a 180-degree difference compared to his previous roles. His softness back then has changed to a tougher and good-looking man.
Yes no flower boy image anymore ^^ Now he is known with his acting skill first.

Are you guy surprised with his transformation? To me, it is YES.

For those who kept the wrong idea that " KHJ cant act properly or his acting is so poor", they may watch their mouth and shut it up when seeing this.

Inspiring Gneration got nice words and compliments from media site as well as the good rating ~ 7.8 % 

It means that it share a bit rating from SBS 'You Who Came From the Stars' 23.1%,  and  MBC "Miss Korea" 6.8% with broadcasting at the same slot.
A nice begining right?

This is what written on Soompi ( http://www.soompi.com/2014/01/15/wed-thurs-drama-ratings-battle-how-did-the-premiere-age-of-feelings-do/#.UteTDtJ_uSp)
On January 15, “Age of Feelings” aired its first episode, and it recorded a rating of 7.8%. With hallyu star Kim Hyun Joong showing his tough and charismatic fighting skills, the new KBS drama can expect to garner more fans. With two years of planning and about 14.1 million USD invested to the drama production, “Age of Feeling” plans to showcase many talented actors through its interesting story plot.
 or like what mwave.com has written

A competitor has arrived in the arena, and so far, it’s looking decent for KBS’ Age of Feeling. 

Age of Feeling debuted on Wednesday night with Kim Hyun Joong leading the pack. The first episode was met with much interest coming in at second place, having jumped four percent from where Pretty Boy left off last week. 

Kim Hyun Joong’s transformation from flower boy to charismatic man is also in progress, perhaps, foreshadowing high ratings in the near future.
As his agency stated:
Kim Hyun Joong’s Agency, KeyEast commented, “Kim Hyun Joong has strived much efforts to implement his character as Shin Jeong Tae,” and they added, “he has worked hard for his transformation including his speech, actions and his looks and even his physique. Though there will be complicated scenes, Kim Hyun Joong always assures his own safety. He has worked really hard so please keep on supporting him and look forward to his transformation.”
 

Although we all knew that all the blood, bruises or scares are just make-up, they were so real.
And this hurt us alot when seeing HJ being beaten ><

The media has just given nice and possitive comments and forecast a good future for Inspiring Generation but I feel pitiful for all  HJ's efforts when glancing the comments of K-netizens. why they only bashed only him for the low rating (if yes) ? is it fair?
As you know, the success of a film does not solely base on Kim Hyun Joong or anyone? It is the result of all ekip from the script, the actors, actresses and others  these netizen should have a fair look and watch their mouth.

Look back at PK time, It was Hyun Joong who made PK succeeded in oversea market despite of its low rating in hometown. And CNN had an interview with HJ for this success. plus PK had it own channel in youtube for its extra. not many Kdramas can do this.

If you dont like Kim Hyun Joong acting, you dont need to see this film. There are alot of K-dramas for you.
Sometimes, i see antis give more attentions or times to KHJ more than his fans.

Hope that the love and support from views can push the rating day by day.

Even Kim Hyun Joong, He said that he was so worried that he couldnt see the 1st aired episode. He did not expect the rating come out like this ^^ Huh our  HJ only expected for 6% but it was 7.8%.
And modestly he said that the last episode can surpass 15 %.
As in this interview below
[Inspiring Generation]'s lead actor Kim Hyun Joong met up with StarNews on 15th January at Seoul Yeongdeungpo and predicted that first episode's rating will be about 6%. He said,"As an actor, it's impossible not to be bothered about the ratings, too nervous so may skip watching the first broadcast."

He continued,"Audience have high concern on competing works, but it seem [Inspiring Generation]'s rating will continue to increase, last episode can surpass 15%."

Regarding the action scenes and acting of a tough guy, Kim Hyun Joong says it's not difficult to digest the action scenes. There were a lot of NG for one fighting scene, they decided to do it for real after discussing with the actor. Despite bruises started to form on the shoulder, compared to the feeling of pain, he felt satisfied because the filming completed well.

He added,"Actually [Inspiring Generation] is a very great drama, hope to receive more support and love from the audience in future."

I hope that people in SK can give more love to this drama, not because of HyunJoong.
And if the rating surpass 25 % there will be a free hug and free treat by KHJ at his Jaksal chicken ^^
Dont miss the 2nd episode tonight at 10 KST ^^
Let get inspired by Shin Jung Tae with Inspring Generation.
